Ingredients

  • 1 pound asparagus spears
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan
  • 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
  • 4 garlic cloves sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Move the oven rack up to the top position.
  • Cut the woody bottoms off the asparagus spears or bend them with your fingers to snap them off. Use a potato peeler to shave the skin off the bottom half of the asparagus.
  • Spread the asparagus out on a baking sheet. Cover with the melted butter and toss with Parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic slices, salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Place into the oven to roast for 10 minutes and serve immediately.
